Jump onboard tall ship Blue Clipper for a passage crossing adventure! Leave land in the distant horizon as you set sail across the ocean. From UK based mile builders to crossing the Bay of Biscay, or even taking on the ultimate Atlantic crossing, Blue Clipper's passage crossings suit all experience levels. Built-in Sweden in 1991, Blue Clipper is an impressive three-masted gaff rig schooner. With a clipper bow, original teak deck and elegant stern, she mixes a traditional tall ship feel with a relatively modern build giving guests an authentic experience with all the mod cons. On deck, she boasts ample space for her guests to become fully immersed in hands-on sailing, heaving the ropes, hoisting the sails, learning ropes skills, and even taking the helm. A spacious saloon, wheelhouse and galley also sit at deck level, while below decks have been well-considered with six spacious ensuite cabins, sleeping 12. All cabins have full-size bunks, a small desk, a porthole for natural light and heating/air conditioning.

La giornata comincia a Palermo. Una sveglia seguita da un rifornimento di gasolio. Tutto fila liscio, i programmi sono di arrivare a Cefalù prima dello scroscio previsto nel pomeriggio. Sgranchiamo un po’ le gambe a Julia! Issiamo randa e apriamo genoa. Avanti tutta! Sorrisoni, buona musica, vele piene e sole a palla. Finché una coltre di nubi all’orizzonte non fa il suo ingresso in scena. Tutto pare rispettare le previsioni, compresa l’incudine di nuvole preannunciante il temporale. Arriviamo, ormeggiamo… e?? Nulla. Che belle sorprese i temporali che sfogano prima del tuo arrivo altrove. Così, asciutti, lavoriamo. Facciamo call, operatività e sistemiamo problemi che abbiamo con alcuni fornitori… Normale routine insomma. Il tramonto diventa come al solito protagonista e viene guardato anche da Mia in prima fila. Domani ci aspettano parecchie miglia: letto presto e sveglia ancora più presto. A domani, con una sorpresa su Julia😊

#sailboat #sand on sailboat #Sailboat after sandstorm #sailing #sailing North Sea #Sailing in Holland This is a short version of one of our longer episodes where we get into a sandstorm and get sand everywhere. We are a middle aged couple that has left our hectic business lives to go sailing with our boat Fridá af Wisby and our cat Litza. Anders has been at the sea most of his life and sailed for the Swedish national dingy sailing team as a young man. Gitte has also grown up with boat and spent every summer sailing with her father as a teenager but made a pause of about 15 years without sailing as an adult, had just begun to pick-up the interest before she meet Anders a 4 years ago. Onboard we also have our cat Litza a 3 year old Devon Rex we call her the cattain because cats always decide over their humans. Litza is a Devon Rex cat and she is the real cattain aboard. Fridá af Wisby is a Wauquiez 47 pilot saloon that we Gitte and Anders bought in UK in 2019 and that we have sailed to Gotland and in season 1 2020 we sail in the Baltic Sea.
